C is also known as compiled language which means that once you write your C program, you must run it through a C compiler to run your program into an executable that the computer can run (execute). The C program is the human readable form, while the executable that comes out of the compiler is the machine-readable and executable form. That means to write or run a C program, you must have access to a C compiler.

C
is a computer programming language and is a
powerful general-purpose programming language. C is one of the thousands
of programming languages currently in use. C has been around for several
decades and has won widespread acceptance because it gives programmers maximum
control and efficiency. C is an easy language to learn. It is a bit more cryptic in its style than
some other languages.

History Of
C Language : - The C programming is a
structure oriented programming language , developed at Bell laboratories in
1972 by Dennis Ritchie .
- v C programming language
features were derived from an earlier language called “B”(Basic Combined
Programming Language – BCPL)
- C language was invented
for implementing UNIX operating system
- In 1978, Dennis Ritchie
and Brian Kernighan published the first edition “The C programming language”
and commonly known as K&R C
- In 1983, the American
National Standards Institute(ANSI) established a committee to provide a modern,
comprehensive definition of C .The resulting definition, the ANSI standard, or
“ANSI C”, was completed late 198.
Uses Of C Programming Language:
The C programming language
is used for developing system applications that forms a major portion of
operating systems such as Windows, UNIX and Linux. Below are some examples of C
being used.
- § Database systems
- § Graphics packages
- § Word processors
- § Spreadsheets
- § Operating system
development
- § Compilers and Assemblers
- § Network drivers
- § Interpreters
